New Delhi: Congress leader Sushil kumar Shinde today took a dig at BJP over its move to project Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi as its Prime Ministerial candidate, saying political parties could declare any ‘Tom, Dick or Harry' as their leader.





Home Minister Shinde said any small or big political party can declare their Prime Ministerial candidate ahead of the 2014 general elections.

“Koi bhi Ramu, Shamu aur Damu ka nam le sakte hain (Anyone can name any Tom, Dick or Harry),” he told reporters here when asked to comment on BJP's move to declare the Gujarat strongman as its Prime Ministerial candidate.

“But we (Congress) have already declared that Rahul Gandhi is our leader,” he said.
